While 'Merengue America' is a specific, modern creation, it draws upon European pastry traditions adapted with local Brazilian ingredients. Meringue itself has European origins, likely Switzerland or Italy, and the use of strawberries, cream, and fruit coulis are also common in European desserts. Brazilians have embraced and adapted these influences, adding their own touch with homemade meringues and fresh, local fruit.

This verrine offers a delightful combination of sweet, tart, creamy, and airy textures and flavors. The sweetness of the meringue and chantilly is balanced by the tartness of the strawberries and red fruit coulis, with a hint of lemon zest providing a bright, refreshing counterpoint.
The dominant flavors are the sweetness of the meringue (suspiros), the creamy richness of the chantilly, and the fruity tang of the strawberries and red fruit coulis. The homemade meringues offer a delicate crunch, while the chantilly provides a smooth and luxurious mouthfeel. The red fruit coulis contributes a concentrated burst of berry flavor, and the lemon zest adds a subtle citrus note that enhances the overall freshness.
Función Premium
Meringue Crispness
Ensure the meringues are baked thoroughly to achieve a crisp, dry texture. Avoid humidity during baking and storage to prevent them from becoming soggy.
Chantilly Stability
Use high-quality heavy cream and chill the bowl and whisk before whipping to ensure a stable and voluminous chantilly. Avoid over-whipping, which can result in butter.
Fruit Coulis Freshness
Use a combination of fresh and frozen red berries to create a vibrant and flavorful coulis. Adjust the sweetness and tartness to your preference.
Lemon Zest
Use only the zest of the lemon, avoiding the bitter white pith. Grate the zest finely for even distribution of flavor.
